TNT: Improving Chunkwise Training for Test-Time Memorization

ICLR 2026poster

Recurrent neural networks (RNNs) with deep test-time memorization modules, such as Titans and TTT, represent a promising, linearly-scaling paradigm distinct from Transformers. While these expressive models do not yet match the peak performance of state-of-the-art Transformers, their potential has be…

Best of Both Worlds: Advantages of Hybrid Graph Sequence Models

ICML 2025poster

Modern sequence models (e.g., Transformers and linear RNNs) emerged as dominant backbones of recent deep learning frameworks, mainly due to their efficiency, representational power, and/or ability to capture long-range dependencies. Recently, adopting these sequence models for graph-structured data…

Invertible Convolutional Flow

NeurIPS 2019spotlight

Normalizing flows can be used to construct high quality generative probabilistic models, but training and sample generation require repeated evaluation of Jacobian determinants and function inverses. To make such computations feasible, current approaches employ highly constrained architectures that…

Multi-view Matrix Factorization for Linear Dynamical System Estimation

NeurIPS 2017poster

We consider maximum likelihood estimation of linear dynamical systems with generalized-linear observation models. Maximum likelihood is typically considered to be hard in this setting since latent states and transition parameters must be inferred jointly. Given that expectation-maximization does not…
